THE WAR WORK CAMPAIGN. Following so closely u|>on the Fourth Utterly Loan drive, the War Work Campaign may be considered a hard ahlp by those who subscribed their

llmll to the bonds.

The War Work drive differs from the Utterly Loan Campaign In this respect: In the Utterly Loan drive the money was LOANED, while in the coming drive It will be GIVEN. The distinction between loaning and giving is great enough to mem a little thought. When money Is loaned to the government, the art ot loaning Is undoubtedly a patriotic one; but nine persons out of ten bought Uberly Uonds with another motive, namely to save and lnv<-st at a liberal rate of Interest, with their entire nation'!

sources as security.

There is no particular credit due to a person who saves and invests. They are thrifty and patriotic, of courae. and deserve credit for this. Hut their mon< y Is secure, and available at any

HOUSEHOLDERS MUST Hap TO SAVE WHEAT

A careful surrey has been tbs food requirements of the Allied Countries, and from the reports It Is found that to reserve enough supfiUr* and reserve against dlsast. r for two hundrad and twenty million people fighting against Germany there must be maintained a conservation of wheat flour during the coming year. Beginning September 1 we may dm 80 per cent, of wheat flour in our battera. dough and pastry mixture. There are many of us who will continue on practically a total wheat ale stinenoo basis so long as there is a nosd fo.* wbdiL We like the new bread a end we feel more American when we are rHcaalng a bit more than absolutely necessary The Food Administration is relying upon each householder to do her part and see that at least 20 per cent, of substitute cereals la mixed Into the wheat flour for all uses at home. Ask for Vlctrey Ml.ad Flour.

To be sure

If yon have been puzzled about bow to store your war garden pmdiicti so az to Insure them most effectively against decay the following suggestions sent out by tbs Federal Food Administration for New Jersey will

help:

The cellar Is the best place for potatoes, been, tum!|">. carrots, iianuilpa and salsify, but they should be proi tectcd from dry air and furnace best. ! | To provide this protection n storage room should be made nnd both sides of the partition covered with felt paper The material In the cellar floor Is Itm portaet If It U cement, ocrasioual moistening of the sand covering lbs vegetables Is desirable. An earth floor j Is usually damp enough to mak.- this I unnecessary, but If the floor Is ..-r. j damp It Is better to provide a sln.l. , ' floor about two Inches from the csrt.'i. j Excessively damp air‘can be n-djred ] through ventilation A few hooka In the celling of the store room will be found n- rut, also ! some buUt-ln bins. A load ..t I.under's ! sand to cover root* like i-urrots and j beets and a few slat l«.\c» and old | bags—and you are reedy to store any '

time.

What vegetables will yon store In I your cellar! Potatoes, beets, turnips, I ccrrota, parsnip': and salsify ate the ! best for such a place. Kqiush. pumpkin and onions should be s’on-d In the attic. Calhage Is better stored outside In a straw-lined, well ventilated j pit As the w-eather grows colder add j more coverings of straw and earth. Potatoes should lie dug. left In the ground a short time and thee stared I In a dark place. The Ideal temperature Is SS to S3 degrees Fahrenheit. | Beets, turaliw and enrrots may be | stored like potatoes, but keep In lietter condition If they arc covered with i

There are some localities where other flours are desirable aa wheat tv-leascra. The administration allow that where desirable the consumer may buy to the wains proportions any of the following flours to mix wtih the wheat they use: Rice. Bean. Kaffir. Oat. Potato. Buckwheat. Peanut. Sweet Potato. Milo Fetaiita Flour. Where Rye flour Is purchased a su'wtltute two pound* of rre flour must be purchased with three pounds

Buy Navy Bean Flour.

Navy bean flour should he In every kitchen as It Is both a wheat and meat releaser. I’ae It In place of any wheat flour a* thickening for gravies and aoupa and as flouring for cutlets and croquettes. A splendid puree ran be made of Just the bean flour cooked thoroughly In water or milk aeaaot.-d and added to hot milk either fresh or evaporated. If evaporated milk la used It may be diluted—ooe and onehalf parts water to one part evaporated milk—and give a hearty puree with the rooked lean flour and a liberal arasonlug of a high grade oli-o-rgarine The oleomargarine will add thp fat needed to make a thick hewn puree practbally a meut In Itself.

No Mystery in Meat

Some things are so simple that they have to be explained again and again. When things are obvious, people keep looking for mysteries behind them. So it is with the packing business. The mere fixe of Swift & Company confuses many. Because their imaginations are not geared up to scale, they believe there must be magic in it somewhere—some weird power. Swift ft Company is ju*t like any other manufacturing business run by human bongs like yourself, it takes in raw material on the one hand and tumt out a finished product on the other. Sw «f* A Company keeps down the "spread." or the expense absorbed between raw and finished material, to aa low a figure as poesiUe. (If ft didn’t It would be put out of business by others who do.) How much Swift ft Company paj-s for the raw materia], and how much it gets for the finished product, depends upon conditions which Swift ft Company does not control. It depends entirely upon how much people want the finished product, and how much raw material there is available to make it from. The profits of Swift ft Company amount to less than one cent per pound on all meats and by-products—less than one-fourth of a cent on beef.
